Constructor Detail

PrintStream

public PrintStream(OutputStream out)

Enabled: Create a new print stream. This stream will not flush automatically.

Parameters:

out - The output stream to which values and objects will be printed

See Also:

java.io.PrintWriter#PrintWriter(java.io.OutputStream)

PrintStream

private PrintStream(boolean autoFlush,
                    OutputStream out)

PrintStream

public PrintStream(OutputStream out,
                   boolean autoFlush)

Enabled: Create a new print stream.

Parameters:

out - The output stream to which values and objects will be printed

autoFlush - A boolean; if true, the output buffer will be flushed whenever a byte array is written, one of the println methods is invoked, or a newline character or byte ('\n') is written

See Also:

java.io.PrintWriter#PrintWriter(java.io.OutputStream, boolean)

PrintStream

public PrintStream(OutputStream out,
                   boolean autoFlush,
                   String encoding)
            throws UnsupportedEncodingException

Enabled: Create a new print stream.

Parameters:

out - The output stream to which values and objects will be printed

autoFlush - A boolean; if true, the output buffer will be flushed whenever a byte array is written, one of the println methods is invoked, or a newline character or byte ('\n') is written

encoding - The name of a supported character encoding

Method Detail

init

private void init(OutputStreamWriter osw)

ensureOpen

private void ensureOpen()
                 throws IOException

Check to make sure that the stream has not been closed

IOException

flush

public void flush()

Enabled: Flush the stream. This is done by writing any buffered output bytes to the underlying output stream and then flushing that stream.

Overrides:

flush in class FilterOutputStream

See Also:

java.io.OutputStream#flush()

close

public void close()

Enabled: Close the stream. This is done by flushing the stream and then closing the underlying output stream.

Overrides:

close in class FilterOutputStream

See Also:

java.io.OutputStream#close()

checkError

public boolean checkError()

Enabled: Flush the stream and check its error state. The internal error state is set to true when the underlying output stream throws an IOException other than InterruptedIOException, and when the setError method is invoked. If an operation on the underlying output stream throws an InterruptedIOException, then the PrintStream converts the exception back into an interrupt by doing:

     Thread.currentThread().interrupt();
 

or the equivalent.

Returns:

True if and only if this stream has encountered an IOException other than InterruptedIOException, or the setError method has been invoked

setError

protected void setError()

Set the error state of the stream to true.

Since:

JDK1.1

write

public void write(int b)

Enabled: Write the specified byte to this stream. If the byte is a newline and automatic flushing is enabled then the flush method will be invoked.

Note that the byte is written as given; to write a character that will be translated according to the platform's default character encoding, use the print(char) or println(char) methods.

Overrides:

write in class FilterOutputStream

Parameters:

b - The byte to be written

See Also:

print(char), println(char)

write

public void write(byte[] buf,
                  int off,
                  int len)

Enabled: Write len bytes from the specified byte array starting at offset off to this stream. If automatic flushing is enabled then the flush method will be invoked.

Note that the bytes will be written as given; to write characters that will be translated according to the platform's default character encoding, use the print(char) or println(char) methods.

Overrides:

write in class FilterOutputStream

Parameters:

buf - A byte array

off - Offset from which to start taking bytes

len - Number of bytes to write

See Also:

java.io.FilterOutputStream#write(int)

write

private void write(char[] buf)

write

print

public void print(boolean b)

Parameters:

b - The boolean to be printed

print

public void print(char c)

Enabled: Print a character. The character is translated into one or more bytes according to the platform's default character encoding, and these bytes are written in exactly the manner of the write(int) method.

Parameters:

print

public void print(int i)

Enabled: Print an integer. The string produced by java.lang.String#valueOf(int) is translated into bytes according to the platform's default character encoding, and these bytes are written in exactly the manner of the write(int) method.

Parameters:

i - The int to be printed

See Also:

java.lang.Integer#toString(int)

print

public void print(long l)

Enabled: Print a long integer. The string produced by java.lang.String#valueOf(long) is translated into bytes according to the platform's default character encoding, and these bytes are written in exactly the manner of the write(int) method.

Parameters:

l - The long to be printed

See Also:

java.lang.Long#toString(long)

print

public void print(float f)

Enabled: Print a floating-point number. The string produced by java.lang.String#valueOf(float) is translated into bytes according to the platform's default character encoding, and these bytes are written in exactly the manner of the write(int) method.
